Kudun and Partners’ well-rounded disputes offering comprises no less than 15 seasoned litigators who have acted before all levels of court, as well as in national and international arbitrations. Peers have noted the firm’s increasing visibility on high-stakes, large disputes. Clients range from domestic industry giants to overseas-based multinationals. The firm is experienced in complex commercial litigations and white-collar crime matters and regularly handles litigations and arbitrations related to construction and employment. During the research period, the firm remained busy on a range of disputes borne from business restructurings, rehabilitations and employment issues, and it added mandates related to defamation, class action lawsuits and financial products. Key clients include Advanced Info Service Public Company, Asia Wealth Securities, Big Camera, Digital Phone Company, LG Electronics, Mimo Tech, RHB Securities and Volvo Group. In the past 12 months, the disputes team gained East West Seed International, H Home, Thaicom, Major Development Public Company and Agilent Technologies as new clients. The four key partners of the dispute resolution practice are head Somboon Sangrungjang, along with Niruch Winiyakul, Emi Rowse and Kongwat Akaramanee.
In a recent cross-border highlight, the team acted for Zipmex Thailand in the moratorium process regarding an event under the Court of Singapore, and in dealing with the Securities and Exchange Commission of Thailand with respect to this same event. This case is highly significant in the country as it is the very first dispute for an SEC-authorised digital asset exchange platform that possesses an official licence and also involves a multi-jurisdictional moratorium process.
